h-index

ACS Chemical biology has been publishing a series of articles on h-index this year.

A satirical take. A nice article by Anirban on why the DBT policy in India is flawed. A detailed article by Seeberger on why trust is more important.

a satirical take on impact factor in the biology community. Strangely I saw none of this/very little of impact factors in engineering. But friends in biology swear that reality is not very far away..

How is cumulative impact factor calculated ?

Here is an article by Odded Goldreich, one of the greatest theoretical computer scientists of our time. It gives an alternate (and perhaps more healthy) perspective on how to evaluate scientific work.
